Is Nikon 24mm 1.4G to wide-angle lens, Is what 200mm 2.0 is to Tele-photo lens?

Ive heard many people and photographers give high praise to Nikon 24mm 1.4G. I don't shoot wide often, but the image I've seen online has me tempted to purchase one of these. Right now I own a D700 + 24-70mm 2.8G + 85mm 1.4G + 50mm 1.8D.

Just how special this 24mm 1.4G is? Is it mainly a specialty lens, or could you actually replace this lens for 24-70mm and pair it up with 85mm 1.4G for events and weddings?
